Step into a candid conversation with Working Healthcare host Meredith Hirsh and Florida Atlantic University College of Medicine Professor and Chair Dr. Allison Ferris. From swelling Match classes to record debt, this episode asks whether a bigger training pipeline means truly practice-ready physicians. Should elite undergrads chase finance while medicine loses talent, or are admissions still rewarding the right qualities to shape tomorrow’s internists? Allison digs into moonlighting realities, six-figure loans and how those pressures steer specialties, training and well-being. Get practical advice from a residency program director on what predicts readiness, how to teach differently and whether July is really as risky as the jokes suggest. Press play to learn what it will take to graduate doctors who are ready on day one. Scrub in and listen!
